| Lost Hair around eyes - black eyes! Hi, my little stud dog visited 2 breeding girls for a week. While he was there, he developed a boil under his arm, and also was scratching alot. He was taken to the vets, treated and came home. I took him to my own Vet straight away, and they said he is ok now. He is fine now, but ive noticed that he has lost the hair around his eyes - he looks like he has got 2 black eyes, some days it looks ok, and others they look terrible, any idea wat this is? |

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | If he had scratched off the fur and/or if there was a skin infection around the eyes, the skin may turn dark for awhile. That happened to my Wylie - he had a little bite by one of his eyes and he kept scratching the skin, it became infected, we had to apply prescription ointment for 10 days - and then the skin turned very dark -- it took quite a few months for it to normalize. It's normal for skin to turn dark while healing - altho sometimes it never turns pink again, just fyi. What was the diagnosis anyway? Did they culture the area?
